Thread Name: Lyr Req: Edinburgh songs
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Edinburgh songs
My Grandfather had a 'gramaphone' record by Will Fyfe. It had the chorus 'Pory folk Leith folk&c.
The verse I remember is
I can mind when umbrellas hadnae ony ribs
I can mind when Edinburgh had nae Hearts or Hibs,
I can mind when Morningside didnae hae a tram,
And I can mind when Arthur's seat got wet in Liberton Dam
